I was participating in the Central Coast half marathon in Nov, as many hotels were booked I found this and thought it looked ok online. Not quite the same in person, side of the highway motel, sort of rundown but room was big and really I just needed to get a good night's sleep. We checked in at 4pm and... More

We arrived staff very pleasant how ever we were advised that the restaurant was closed & that was bad luck if you did not have transport because this resort is a fair way from anything. The room was clean furnishings a little dated but had all the things you need for a short stay the bed was very hard &... More

My partner and I stayed at the resort for two nights during peak holiday season and found it to be a great place to stay. The service was straightforward, friendly and housekeeping were attentive to our needs (not that we had any, but the offer was pleasing). The room was huge, all in one space with surprisingly comfortable lounges &... More

We stayed just one night. The room smelt like the doors hadn't been opened in weeks, the restaurant and bar wasn't open, had we known that we wouldn't have stayed there anyway coz its not really walking distance to anywhere. The after hours service...after 8pm even though the phone recording says the reception is open until 10pm...was utterly useless. More

I stayed at this resort after my close friend was married in the ballroom. Traveling from Sydney, I was mesmerized by the beauty of not only the resort but the wedding also. The staff were extremely pleasant, and the food at the wedding was incredible. By far the best wedding I have been to. The room was large, with a... More

The only people we interacted with at the motel were the reception staff and housekeeping. Both seemed accommodating and willing to help. We apparently had one of the "Executive" rooms and they are actually quite large (including the bathroom). The room floor was all tiled, which didn't bother us but it might be a downside for those who prefer a... More

It's a highway motel...not a resort. It was outrageously expensive for what you get...a very average motel room. I have to say that the pool was nice and the staff (I met the woman at reception) was very friendly and helpful but the rest was average and for $190 I would have expected a lot more. Surprisingly, despite being so... More

Extremely disappointing stay at this 'resort'. More Motel than hotel, the accomodation is situated on a main road with a 2km walk uphill to the beach via a housing estate & busy road (ie not practical on foot) The gardens & pool were below average for a 4star and the exterior was circa 1950's. If we hadn't already paid in... More

The room was much larger than expected. The decor is basic and more motel style than resort style all up the room was quite nice and very clean. The landscaping was really well done for a 4 start hotel. The pool is very small however. Its all very nice but I will never stay there again because the Bed and... More
